Are you kidding me, this guy is ridiculous, trying to make up for being a wife beater and just plain old feminine hygeine productbag?

please.. people.. what is wrong with you? this is a nice gesture and perhaps you are judging someone and not correct. I for one would take my kids there until I had all the proven facts. It is too bad that I already paid over $100 each for two physicals for two kids on our wonderful Island by another local doctor. Nice gesture. If this man did beat his wife (if correct) yes, I agree, he has serious issues. Is he trying to make up for being a wife beater by offering free physicals- perhaps he is trying to help the community, I do not know this doctor but I hate the way this Island just decides to beat up everyone they don't like.. be the better persons! please!

25yearsonmarco: Don't listen to anyone when it comes to these blogs. I suggest, if you are really interested, that you do research on Dr. Guidry and determine for yourself what you think of him. Without prejudice or negativity, there is plenty of past data, events, information and records, etc to read and a great deal of information to absorb. Then you can come to your own conclusions, good or bad. You might also try a series of visits to his office, for medical reasons, to further develop your opinion of this Doctor, good or bad. There is nothing like the facts and the truth to develop one's opinion.

well said, I haven't followed Dr. Guidry. I do recall a couple of problems with council, parking, etc. but I have not followed enough the facts. Perhaps the blogs above have looked into his past, and the comments are just and fair. Facts and actions speak loud, good or bad.

After the recent article, reporting that Guidry was arrested for prostitution and soliciting a former "young" patient, why would anyone let him examine their child?

Wow, to the "themessiah" (that's quite a complex you have there)and other haters, it's unclear to me whether you are all blithering idiots, myopic Philistines or malignant narcissists, (i.e. Hitler, Stalin, Saddam Hussein, etc)...perhaps all three definitions apply - yes, I believe they do.
....were you raised by wolves....because I know if you had a mother she would have told you; believe none of what you hear (in this case, read) and half of what you see. Apparently you do not know how to read "between" the lines.
Does your jaw unhinge once you have captured your prey? You haters must all be the standard bearers of what is 'right' in this world...your deep insecurities and inflated self-images are showing.
FACT: Dr. Guidry was never, I repeat, NEVER arrested for this bogus, vicious allegation...check the Collier County web site yourselves, you have public acces (I would think you would have known that)...oh well, happy to pass it on to you.
Oh yes, to cassieben, no, an unemployed/uninsured stripper is not a bad person, however, when that same person fabricates such a vicious story for financial or what ever gain, (That's what I got from the article) that makes WHAT she did unscrupulous and evil. Actually I pity her; apparently she never had a good role model. Has anyone bothered to look into her history?
So, he was on the Howard Stern Show...and that has 'what' to do with the price of tea in China? Do I detect a bit of jealousy here? Sorry I missed the show, I hear tell it was very funny. The 'themessiah' stated he 'felt sorry' for some of those who penned a positive note on this take, I believe he wouldn't know how to feel sorry for anyone...it must be awful to be so pathetic in his skin.
Do you know the number of animals; horses, dogs, cats, etc. that Dr. Guidry has rescued; OK no, you don't; Do you know of how generous he is to patients that cannot afford medical coverage...no you don't...do you know how well he treats his entire staff along with their families whom you are also berating, no you don't; do you know of the children he has helped thru his unselfish support along with donating his time and expertise to, no you don't; Do you know he is a veteran who has protected your butt and tended to our injured brothers, no you don't...Luckily there are so many wonderful people on Marco who have the intelligence and insight to know these charges are bogus. Fortunately he has a wonderful patient base that can see right thru this bull. Dr. Guidry has been and will continue to be my physician as well as members of my family and I might add, he is a great diagnostician.

Wow, themessiah, you liken Dr. Guidry to OJ Simpson, Jeffrey Dohmer, Mike Tyson (I forgot what he did), Bernie Madoff; I’m surprised you left out Jack the Ripper. Luckily, his patients know the truth and won’t be swayed by a bitter, ugly soul such as yours and the rest of the haters. I certainly hope I am not a neighbor of yours….ah, but I would immediately recognize you by your hate and your coward ness because it would spill out thru your aura, and it’s a very ugly color. I would put that stone down if I were you. Try breathing exercises, they really do help. You told Fossil to get a life: Sounds like he already has one…sounds like you really need to get one.
PS I wonder if once he is found innocent of these charges, I wonder if that story will get as much “ink” as this story has gotten and I wonder if the local TV news will ticker tape “Marco Dr. found innocent, charges dropped & he was never arrested as we originally reported, we were wrong,” I wonder if that will be flashing every half hour, nah, because that would be honest journalism and not sensational enough…back page if any page.

If you cared at all about your child going to a doctor you would be sending them to a pediatrician( childrens doctor). Enough said.
